Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow

Winter is finally here, and we've had some snow recently.  It hasn' been too deep, only 3 or so inches, but enough to get the kids out with their sledges.

Video here!

Harry loved trying out his new sledge on the school field where there is a steep bank.  All the kids congregate where there is snow and a bank for sledging.

With the sun setting we got Harry up the bank and ready for his go at sledging

But he wasn't sure at first.....

Several goes later and we couldn't stop him!

As ever, necessity is the mother of invention, with some using servery tins as sledges.....

 

Zoe and Noah arrived, so it was then time for some races!

Then Harry and Noah announced they wanted to sledge together.  The hospital is only 50 yards away so.....

....another lunatic decided to have a go.......  By now the light was fading fast, and the camera was struggling to keep up, despite adjusting the aperture and speed settings!

So it was time for one last climb to the top.....

.....in the moonlight.....

....before heading home to warm up!!

Harry is all confused now though, he wants to know when Santa arrives......
